You're entitled to your opinion.

Of course everyone is entitled. Your opinion expressed on this thread inclusive.

But the information I posted isn't meant for everyone because not everyone is awake enough to understand what I wrote.

I understand. Your information is meant for those satanically charged, with all senses opened to his airwaves.

Again, your opinion. Enjoy.

Daniel058:
1John 4:16
God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him. God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them.

Hello Daniel. Yes, God is love and His love is of no respecter of persons.

Daniel058:
If he does, why are the Israelites considered as choosen people?

The Israelites may have been God's chosen people then, but not anymore. Actually, the nation of Israel was to serve a purpose, a model of what God was to eventually do with all nations of the earth. See Israelites as the pioneers.

Now, Christians irrespective of race or nation are collectively a "chosen nation" or people:

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light (1 Peter 2:9)

So God's love and justice is opened to ALL, even to the wicked (Matthew 5:45).

Galatians 5:18 NLT
But when you are directed by the Spirit, you are not under obligation to the law of Moses.

Says someone who still does not know that the Law is spiritual (Romans 7:14). You only ended up exposing yourself as one who neither have the holy Spirit nor direction from it. I know your problem, this is it:

Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be (Romans 8:7).

Carnality is your problem, not God's righteous, holy and good Law.

Again, this is another problem you have:

as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things, in which are some things hard to understand, which untaught and unstable people twist to their own destruction, as they do also the rest of the Scriptures (2 Peter 3:16)

This is Peter speaking of Paul's epistles, of which the unlearned twist and misapplied to their hurt, just like what you're doing. This truth perfectly captures who you are:

desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither what they say nor the things which they affirm (1 Timothy 1:7)

It has been proven already, for example, how you twist and misapplied what Paul taught specifically about the law of physical circumcision. Up till now, you haven't provided anyone seeking to obey that law as a Christian, warranting the scriptural injunction against it. One was hoping you'll stop twisting and misapplying the scriptures further, with obvious contradictions everywhere, but no, you're proving otherwise.

James, a bondservant of God was inspired to write:

If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you do well (James 2:8 )

Did you see that? He says those who keep the Ten Commandments, a royal Law [befitting the King of kings], "do well". He did not say they are cursed, wrong or in bondage.

When summarize as Christ did (Matthew 22:37-40), “You shall love your neighbor as yourself” is the fifth to tenth law wrapped together as the second commandment, whilst the first to fourth is the first and greatest. Furthermore, James went on to show that anyone who breaks any part of this Law is a transgressor, a sinner (verse 9-11). And no wonder sin is breaking the Law (1 John 3:4). It must also be noted that the principle of breaking one part of the Law and breaking ALL only applies to the Ten Commandments, given the examples that James cited. Or is the law of circumcision for instance, part of the Ten Commandments? And lastly, Christians are instructed to speak and act as those who will be judged by the "Law of liberty" (James 2:12). Law of what? Liberty! Obviously, the same Ten Commandments you claimed brings death, sin and bondage. Are you not tired of lying against God's holy, righteous and good Law? Be careful, for it is God you lied against.

Unlike the lies you would want undiscerning minds to believe, when there's no Law it means there's no sin; no wrong anywhere (Romans 4:15), period. Also, if the Law has been abolished, it means there's nothing like love, for love is the commandments and keeping of same (Romans 13:10, 1 John 5:3). But the scriptures says:

Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us (Romans 5:5)

And what is the love of God? His commandments! Indeed, was it not prophesied:

This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the LORD: I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them? (Hebrews 10:16)

What is the New Testament or Covenant? The Law, fulfilled in Romans 5:5; the love of God being His commandments!

You may not appreciate these truths as a carnal mind who is an enemy with God and His commandments. Of course, the love of God is not shed in the minds of carnal people. Nevertheless, those able to discern the truth will hold and treasure it. Also, since you do not want to humble yourself and learn those "things hard to understand", as taught by Paul, you may as well enjoy your delusion and hurt.

Moniter0:
the righteousness, goodness and holiness of the law was to show you how unrighteous, unholy and bad you were, and why you needed Jesus to make you good!

So after showing me, righteousness, goodness and holiness was done away that what may abide? Unrighteousness, unholiness and wickedness?

The more you try to defend what is obviously a lie, the more ridiculous it sounds.

Moniter0:
Acts 13:39 MSG
39 He accomplishes, in those who believe, everything that the Law of Moses could never make good on. But everyone who believes in this raised-up Jesus is declared good and right and whole before God.
https://www.biblestudytools.com/msg/acts/13-39.html?amp

Now I know where you're picking the wrong things from.

Why not study the scriptures for yourself and do away with falsehood?

Moniter0:
^{For the upteempth time, I did not say the law is the ministry of death, the Bible did!
2.Cor 3:7 But if the ministration of death, written and engraven in stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not stedfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory of his countenance; which glory was to be done away:
The ten commandments was the ministry of death that was written and engraved on stones! Can you see it now?}

And same Law is good. If the Ten Commandments produces death, which is the wages of sin, how come it is good just like God? Is God the origin of sin?

You're misapplying and twisting what Paul is teaching in 2 Corinthians 3:7 to further spread your ideas, just like you did with the law of circumcision.

Moniter0:
^{The law is the ministry of death, it is good, just and holy, but it ends up ministering death in the sense that no one can actually keep it both inwardly and outwardly, therefore everyone fall short of it's glorious standard. It can produce life, but due to the sinful nature of man, it kills him.}

Is the Law sin, i.e, death? Paul said, "God forbid!" (Roman 7:7).

You see, you're teaching lies and falsehood. Instead of rejecting sin, you're rejecting the Law which is good.

Moniter0:
^{Rom 7:8 But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead. 7:9 For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died. 7:10 And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death.}

Why didn't you start from verse 7? Cunning man.

Same Paul is exposing your deception. The Law is not sin; death.

Moniter0:
^{The dispensation of the law ended with the establishment of the new covenant. We are now under grace, meaning that we don't keep the requirements of the law to be saved or made righteous in the sight of God, rather we receive righteousness freely by faith in Christ}

What is the New Covenant and what was the Old?

Moniter0:
Romans 10:4 For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

There you go again. Which law? That was how you misapplied the law of circumcision earlier. Up till now, you still haven't shown anyone who is seeking physical circumcision as a Christian.

Moniter0:
There is no need for the law, because we are now led by the Spirit as opposed to being led by the law. Get it?

But the Law is not carnal but spiritual (Romans 7:14). Saying there's no need for the Law is like saying there's no need for the holy Spirit.

You see, your position is contradictory, actually shooting yourself on the foot. It's expected when one is lying. Also, it's either you're ignorant of the Law or simply trying to deceive undiscerning minds. I want to believe it's the former.

Moniter0:
So the law is no where near the just, holy and good standard of God, otherwise there were people who were observing the law in Jesus' time, yet Jesus said none of the was good except God.

And the next thing God called good after His own Self is the Law.

What is that to you?

Moniter0:
the question is the just and holy standard of the law same as God himself?

God is spiritual, same as the Law which He gave. He also said the Law is: holy, righteous and good, and these attributes are His own qualities.

Holiness is holiness, goodness is goodness and righteousness is righteousness; they are not measured using tape.

Interestingly, Jesus said no one is good except God (Luke 18:19). And the next thing God called good is His Law.

What is that to you? Why is God and the Law good? Again, why is both God and the Law spiritual?

You have your answer.

Moniter0:
this is hilarious. I am not the one that called it the ministry of death, the Bible did!

And same Bible and Paul called it, "holy, righteous and good". Is sin which produces death a good thing? Is it from God?

Can't you see that you're contradicting Paul? I say YOU because obviously you don't understand what Paul meant by "ministry of death". If Paul meant that the Law (Ten Commandments) is death, how come he said same Law is good?

Moniter0:
And yes it says that the law is just and holy, but it doesn't say it can make us just and holy, only Jesus has made us just and holy, because we are JUSTified and sanctified (made holy) by faith in Him. Get that?

So the righteousness, holiness and goodness of the Law is for what?

Moniter0:
It seems you just decided to evade the context of Romans 7, because it says that those were under the law are now dead to the law and have been delivered FROM the law. Meaning we have no relationship with the law whatsoever.

What does it mean to be "under the law" and what law?

Moniter0:
hilarious. Can you mention where it attributed, ascribed and equated the just and holy nature of the law to the qualities of God?

The question rather is: Is God holy, righteous and good?

Moniter0:
Don't add to the Bible. God is just and holy, but you cannot put the God's just and holy qualities and that of the law on the same level.

Same is the Law which He gave. After all, the Law just like God is spiritual (John 4:24, Romans 7:14).

Moniter0:
So trying to keep any part of the old testament law of Moses whether circumcision, Ten Commandments, ceremonial law of killing of animals and so on in order to make yourself righteous in the sight of God through such performance is to negate what Jesus has done.

Paul also taught that:

Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good (Romans 7:12)

If you say that the Ten Commandments is the "ministry of death", why is same Paul describing the Ten Commandments in such glowing terms: holy, just, and good? If these qualities of God brings death, then what is it that brings life?

Moniter0:
Like I said, this thread is for those who believe in the finished work of Christ, so for those who are yet to, they are at liberty to navigate away

Shouldn't it rather be for Christians? By the way, who are those believing in incomplete work of Christ?

Someone up there said the cure is temporary. After all, is the Op not saying that the madness was "technically" knockout?

I'm sure we can still remember what happens to Boko Haram when it was "technically defeated".

Moniter0:
good question. The main part of the law that was promoted by the religious teachers in Galatia was circumcision.

In other words, the law that the Galatians were seeking to keep in order to be justified was the law of circumcision. Very good. Have you seen the need to expatiate? I'm sure viewers will appreciate it.

Now here's another question: Do you know of anyone seeking physical circumcision as a Christian?

Moniter0:
^{The thing is that, if you want to keep the law, you cannot choose an aspect to keep, you must keep ALL the requirements of the law or you will come under the curse of the law (see Galatians 3:10). That's why Paul told the Galatians in chapter 5:2-3 that if they agree to be circumcised—referring to circumcision of the flesh, then they must keep all aspects of the law of Moses or they will perish.}

What are these requirements of the law? You know, supposing you're teaching someone that knows absolutely nothing about the law.

Also, you made mentioned of the "law of Moses". What is the law of Moses? Examples please.

Moniter0:
^{we must understand the context of it. Paul was saying in essence that those who walk after the flesh i.e. trusting in your own human efforts and works to be righteous (see Gal 3:2-5) will end up manifesting the works of the flesh. It says in verse 4 of the same chapter (Galatians 5) , that those who are trying to be justified by keeping the law has fallen from grace and Christ has become of NO effect unto them}.

Looking at your statement in bold, the following questions surfaced:

1. Which human efforts and works were the Galatians engaged? Mention at least one.

2. Which law were they attempting to keep in order to be justified?

Expatiate it so that your viewers or listeners can understand what Paul is teaching through inspiration.

Sound question!
It can either make me a better JW or make me doubt JW.

Don't you think you're giving me too much power, enough to influence or decide on your faith?

Did I by any chance become a member of the GB without knowing?

MaxInDHouse:
Are JWs (including MaxIn.DHouse) worshipers of your righteous God?

Let's know now!

Will the answer help you become a better JWs?

I have discussed with one of them here that it didn't take up to an hour before all sorts of insult and labels start to fly right left center.

Once you don't dance to their tune. Get ready for it.

It's their trademark here, whilst they're pretentious wolves when knocking on the door. I've seen them all. They're full of falsehood and terrible manipulation of the scriptures. Liars.

It's no surprise though. It's expected of people who willfully yanked off some part of their own 'bible' in order to deceive.

OneMarvee:
When we die, we seize to exist, we know nothing, we do not even recognize that we are dead. "

That is right, for death is truly the cessation of life (Ecc. 9:5). In fact, a living dog is better than a dead lion (verse 4).

Psalm 6:5 says:

For in death there is no remembrance of You; In the grave who will give You thanks?

Here, the psalmist is asking God a rhetorical question. Of course, he knew the answer very well. Now ask: Why will he asked such questions when supposedly he was going to heaven to meet God when he dies? The answer is simple: the dead are as death as a death wood; completely useless.

But, death is not the end of man. Thanks be to God, there's a resurrection of the dead (1 Corinthians 15:12-58). Some will be resurrected to eternal life [the righteous] whilst some [the wicked] will be resurrected to eternal condemnation or punishment, i.e, dying for all eternity without ever living again (Daniel 12:2, Matthew 25:46, John 5:28-29). But first, the dead must remain in their graves with no consciousness at all, till the resurrection hour.

So yes, nobody is either in heaven nor hell right now. And even when the resurrection comes, the reward of the saved is not to go to heaven but to inherit and reign on this earth as kings [rulers] and priests (Matthew 5:5, Revelation 1:6, 5:10). As for the wicked, they will neither be in hell fire roasted forever, nor is hell fire their home. When the wicked is condemned and thrown into the lake of fire as rubbish (Revelation 20:15), the LORD of hosts says that they will be burn to "ashes" (Malachi 4:3).

In fact, the theme of the entire bible from Genesis to Revelation is nothing but kingdom or government. Yes, rulership in the kingdom of God which will be set up right here on earth. The world has seen no power nor authority yet. Wait till the unveiling of the sons and daughters of God as kings and priests, of which even the creation itself is patiently waiting to be healed by these glorious children of God (Romans 8:19-22). May we not miss out on such power and authority.

Marvee, it's a glorious future for the saints.

ChristisGod:
ACCORDING TO JEHOVAH WITNESSES, Jesus Christ came back to earth as he promised in 1914 but He came invisibly

Not only invisibly, their angel Michael came in audio form.

Please your friend acholarde.y is having a serious problem with this simple question.

I'm sure that friend of mine can speak for himself. Please ask him.

achorladey:
<sup>You are beginning to understand the kind of mindset they have and admittance of wrong they always hard them. Rather than admit they go under the cover of IMPERFECTIONS or this is a faceless forum bla bla.

It's a terrible thing.

Do you know of anything else than to regurgitate "bros" everywhere?

I'm not interested in your incoherent writing. Find someone else.

achorladey:
Or they take such mistake is due to imperfections or hide under imperfections.

Imagine such nonsense.

So I was sharing the truth of the scriptures with someone on another thread when DappaD came along and claimed that I "lifted" that knowledge from JWs. I let it slip because it was actually a very stupid thing to say, since what I shared was neither authored by JWs nor was I quoting any of their material. What I shared was straight out of the scriptures with relevant chapters & verses to support.

And today, same accuser is coming to me again, seeking for a discussion. And I said, the last one we had, you arrogantly claimed that I picked the knowledge from JWs. And I asked, did JWs also authored the scriptures? Of course, one was expecting a reasonable fellow to admit his mistakes and retrace his steps. But no, he proved otherwise.

The irony of it all is the guts to ask me questions in expectance of scriptural answers, the same kind of answers I provided earlier that he claimed was their knowledge. It's simply appalling.

MaxInDHouse:
So my own Jesus is working out fine works in the midst of his followers throughout the earth!

Oh nice. Well done.

MaxInDHouse:
Well then whatever i believe is none of your business!

Of course, yes. I never said it is.

DappaD:
Sorry other things caught my attention. The Greek word translated “church” is most Bibles is ἐκκλησίᾳ/ek·kle·siʹa; which means a body/group of persons gathered together for a particular purpose. It is accurately rendered as “congregation” in some Bibles like the ASV. See Hebrews 2:12

That may be right. But the attached accurately captures it for me; "The Called Out", as in 2 Corinthians 6:17, Revelation 18:4.

DappaD:
Diversion tactics. Please answer the questions.

At this point, it's disgusting that you don't even have the decency to admit your mistake and desist from acting presumptuously.

I should answer you, so that you'll in turn shamelessly claimed it as JWs knowledge? No, I wouldn't dignify you with such response.

MaxInDHouse:
You will just continue to argue fruitlessly on it so if you know him as Jesus it's OK go and do His father's will that's what matters most!

You called it arguments? That's stating the fact.

As for doing His Father's will, don't worry about it. That's my business.

DappaD:
Very good.
But whatever the name of Son of God was/is, it doesn’t matter. After all, Jesus is said to still have other names which we don’t know. Revelation 3:12, 19:12
What matters is, who are the people who identify with this man by doing the will of God(Matthew 7:21, 1John 2:17) i.e. the ones are doing the greater works than he did, today? John 14:12
I would love to hear from you.

DappaD, the last time we met, I told you to look up for the Greek word translated "church". Did you find it? What is the meaning?

By the way, also last time, I was shocked by your terrible sense of reasoning, when you claimed that the truth of God's own word which I shared from the scriptures was "lifted" from JWs. That was clearly a lie against me. Is JWs the author of the Bible or the truth therein its own?

I still find it very disturbing that you could say such nonsense, honestly.

MaxInDHouse:
The name he bears now is Jesus but the name he bears in the spirit realms is Michael

That's a figment of the imagination. The scriptures teaches no such thing.

MaxInDHouse:
No wahala, anyhow you call him doesn't matter now just PRACTICE what he taught even if you call him your cleaner.

It's not what you call him that matters {Matthew 15:8; Isaiah 29:13} rather it's by doing what he commaded {Matthew 7:21-27} so whether you know him as Jesus (the name he bore on planet earth) or archangel Michael (his name in the spirit realms) just listen to him and practice what he thought. Matthew 17:5

If you do nothing can stop you from living forever! John 3:16

What I know and the scriptures teaches is that, Jesus is the God who created archangel Michael. So creation can't be the same as the creator. That's pure nonsense.

Thanks for the advice though. But John 3:16 does not say whosoever believes in archangel Michael will be saved. Michael's mission is to serve the saved redeemed by the Savior of the world, Jesus.
